If TVB were to make a version of ROTK, who would be a perfect choice for each role?

I want to see how Louis Koo would play Guan Yu
and Frankie Lam as Hua Tuo, lolz
That would be really interesting! But I don't really see Louis Koo as Guan Yu...maybe Lu Bu, the role he was offered in the Chinese version.
Anyway, maybe Raymond Lam as Zhao Yun...I'm not sure TVB can actually pull off a version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Maybe if it's a joint production, but that would be interesting!

oh nice series, I love this series, good series
The correct question is WHICH TVB ACTOR/ACTRESS would you like to see in a remake of...
TVB is unlikely, until hell freezes (but this is also unlikely due to global warming), over to remake Romance of the Three Kingdoms because it just simply cannot match Mainland productions with historical epics. This is compounded by the fact TVB seems to enjoy making series within the safety zone they've already established in terms of script/story for the past two decades. And when they try to escape this vicious cycle, they are charged with plagiarizing (I remain neutral to this issue).
The only thing TVB is doing different is the promotion of its younger actors, which I think was partly forced upon them as the TVB giants left its management.
I wish TVB would do a (well-written) remake. Mainland series are more epic and more realistic-looking, but in terms of plot, pacing, acting, and at times choreography & costumes, frequently they launch into the bizarre. Although TVB tends to do that now too, sadly.
Anyway....a remake of ROTK needs to employ veteran actors. Damien Lau played Cao Cao in a movie; I thought he was brilliant. I can't think of a single TVB actor who is epic enough to play Zhao Yun though.
i've read in another forum tvb is making a series called return of the three kingdoms.
Right. I heard that it will be similar to Ryuuroden, the manga. Hope it that good!
I'd be so so happy if they'd just do a simple short wuxia these days.. much less a grand epic.
yeah its base on the manga. time traveling. but i think i read somewhere theres going to be two main characters. ron and ray. looks like twin of brothers cast, tavia is also in.
hopes ray in, haven't seen him in ancient dramas latetly found this off asianfanatics.net

Ron Ng, Steven Ma, and Fala Chen are originally the main leads of upcoming TVB series "Return to Three Kingdoms" (回到三國) as it was seen in the 2010 TVB Sales Presentation. However, now it is said Raymond Lam and Tavia Yeung would be the leads, making the series appeared to be Season 2 of "Mysteries of Love." It is said TVB hopes to push Raymond and Tavia to be TV King and Queen of next year with this series. A bunch of netizens have been discussing this incident already and many object Raymond replacing Ron, saying it is unfair to Ron.
Reporters contacted Ron yesterday and he frankly said he has heard of the dispute. As for it is possible that Raymond would take his role, he said: "Actually everyone knows the leads in the sales presentation promotion clips won't necessary be arranged to shoot the drama. Not only this one, but it happens to other dramas as well. Although I think it's an interesting drama when I was reading the script, but I won't mind. Plus, I heard this drama to start shooting in March. I need to shoot "Forensic Heroes 3" by then, so there's a schedule conflict, can't shoot this drama at all." In addition, asked whether he afraid to have rumors again with Charmaine Sheh during shooting "Forensic Heroes 3," he said: "No, we're only working."

In the praying ceremony, Sharon was interviewed. She said producer told her that her version of Xiao Qiao will have 'princess illness' and act like a 'hong kong girl'.
This is so disappointing.
